    Bell Bottom: Vaani Kapoor Roped In To Play Akshay Kumar Wife In The Spy Thriller

    It has been a while since Bell Bottom had been announced. The film has been shifted once and due to the ongoing pandemic, it might be postponed again. Akshay Kumar, who had revealed the first look poster in 2019, had been searching for his leading lady. Speculations had been rife that Kriti Sanon’s sister, Nupur Sanon, with whom he paired up for the music video Fillhal might be opposite him in the film as well. But now, it turns out that Vaani Kapoor has been finalized for the role.

    Reports have also suggested that she will play Akshay’s wife in the thriller and unlike in her last film, War, she will have a full-fledged role. According to a report in Mumbai Mirror, a source close to the development of the film was quoted saying, “Vaani was signed a week ago and is excited for the shoot with Akshay. It’s not the usual female lead… she plays Akshay’s wife and is integral to the shoot. Look tests will take place closer to the shoot.”

    Well, the script has already been discussed and recently, producer Jaccky Bhagnani and director Ranjit Tiwari were seen with Akshay in Jaisalmer, discussing the script. The shoot was to take place in September and Akshay will join the film after he wraps up Bachchan Pandey. Other than Bell Bottom, Vaani also has Ranbir Kapoor and Sanjay Dutt starrer Shamshera.
